Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.

Daniel P. Berrange a615833664 Log an audit message with the LXC init pid
Currently the LXC driver logs audit messages when a container
is started or stopped. These audit messages, however, contain
the PID of the libvirt_lxc supervisor process. To enable
sysadmins to correlate with audit messages generated by
processes /inside/ the container, we need to include the
container init process PID.

We can't do this in the main 'start' audit message, since
the init PID is not available at that point. Instead we output
a completely new audit record, that lists both PIDs.

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
